"Choose appropriate lane before entering roundabout" 😂 That is the first mistake right there.

Why the hell would anyone be in the left lane of one of these things when you have to turn right to get out of the damn thing?

This is for left hand drive cars not for Australian cars

Nice, the single most important tool to prevent collisions in traffic, used all over the world, and Americans can't work out how to navigate them. Maybe you should learn to drive.

nothing about using turn signal? :)

How about base stabilization by bitumen?

Conciencia señores!!!

It seems the cold patch last longer than the hot rocks!!

I live next to a highway with 8 feet of extra road as a shoulder. The highway department put the rumble stripes right on the white line. 1 out 5 five cars hit that line all day everyday. You can hear the noise a mile away. Wish I could fill them in with something to reduce or eliminate the noise.😢😢

We have 3 double roundabouts. Two of them are on two major highway here in Fredericton New Brunswick

On some streets they don't need them. The real small ones are stupid in residential areas. Some of those vehicles didn't use their turn signals turning left. Here in Fredericton New Brunswick there are accidents every few days

🦢They speak 🗣 abuse I remove the ( RUclips.Channel ) I will NOT HEAR 👂 IT!!! Ms.Gonzalez

Turning left use your turn signals. Like in the video We have two of the double roundabout on two highway.

They create more accidents due to lane confusion. A traditional 4-way stop works far better and cheaper to construct..

Clearwater, Florida has one at the beach.

Slowing down traffic? Every one I've been in people either go way too fast, or roll right through the yield sign. F roundabouts.

Roundabouts have one special ability. They creates traffic jam on places, where it never been before!

They always talk about all the benefits of roundabouts, but I think it boils down to side-swipes are better than t-bones.

This may work on paper, but it just barely works in practice. Even the simple 4-way stop is more than most people are capable of understanding. Even people that do understand, and also read signs and lane markings are going to do whatever they want when they find themselves in the wrong lane.

So disappointed you didn't mention how to signal. I have seen maybe ONE other person in my entire life use their signals in a roundabout correctly.

Keep a slower speed in roundabouts

yield on roundabouts

Most people dont use their blinkers in roundabouts

one day when i drive :) for a handsome irish guy

I avoid the roundabout altogether and travel 1/4 mile further and do a turnaround.

Just had someone nearly hit me on the roundabout, the situation was im turning west coming from south and they are going straight into south coming from north's right lane. Because i was in the inner circle and they were in the outer circle they assumed (and missed my left turn signal) that they could proceed in their lane. But on a left turn you need to cross over the outer circle. Thats why you must yield to both lanes

People in the comments are saying you don't cross from the inner lane through the outer lane to exit. ??? Then how do you get out? The only thing I fear when using one of these is when I'm in the inside lane and have to cross the outer lane to exit. I'm not staying in there all day. At some point in time I have to exit the roundabout to get home. Otherwise I'll eventually run out of gas and have to abandon my vehicle. So can we please stop claiming that you don't have to cross the outer lane from the inner lane to exit?

There should only be single lane roundabout.

Does anyone else have the problem I have been having, I will use the graphic starting just before the 2-minute mark. If you are a vehicle coming from the southern portion of the image to enter the roundabout and going on the inside lane to turn left then a vehicle on the north side of the roundabout enters but wants to go straight, they cut off the driver from the south trying to turn left because they assume you will continue on the inner circle and not leave. Drivers who want to go straight enter too soon and nearly cause accidents all the time.

Your judgement is only as good as your information / data. So, the more information & experience you have, the better you will perform. This applies to all areas of life.

Yield to all lanes of traffic when entering a roundabout

Look for and stop for any pedestrians and bicyclists

Always slow down and yield be for entering a roundabout

Extra idea!

There is a 2 lane roundabout in Rosemont, IL near the mall that gets really busy and destroys me every time since it's mandatory to pass through it if turning left while exiting the garage it's attached to. The yield rules are a bit nerve wracking when traffic from the main street entering tends to already be going faster than cars exiting the garage...

Glad they brought up semi trucks I been driving tractor trailer for 14 years everytime its scary stuff every time people try to drive traffic circles right beside me I get scared I'm gonna crush someone!!

"As a pedestrian, look to see if there are any vehicles coming. If you think you can make it, run like a sonofabitch because none of these assholes are going to stop for you. Buy a car, you fucking loser."

As a non American those myths seem so backwards... As an example, a left turn is obiosly easier to make in a roundabout than a typical intersection...

A Traffic Circle

This is an old video but wonderfully informative! Thank you for providing this to everyone for free.

There's a certain multilane round about that i rarely use but need to use more often soon. Every time i used it, i got honked at. I just dont know what I'm doing wrong. Also it's supposed to connect you the high way so i dont know what lane to use until i see the sign.

3:03 'Boss said change the sign'

Waiting for a gap on BOTH lanes is important to not cause an accident while getting in a roundabout.

I found the part where it talks about multi lane roundabouts and what lanes to get in intresting, i never understood that before

Yeilding before entering a round about is very important you don't want to cut other drivers off.

In Great Britain/UK the rules are different: if you see a roundabout, drive as fast as you can through is (2 wheels on the ground are enough), and honk at everybody, who goes to slow. But follow the rules strictly. If you can't do it, even half asleep, don't drive ANYMORE.

I hate double-lane roundabouts,I will stop driving if we will have them in our area!

this video really helped me learn

im glad i learned how to navigate a roundabout

roundabouts are really hard to navigate
